I tested the Vive Pro on Windows 7/64 with a GTX 970 "only" on VorpX. Rumours: The Pro Needs a more powerful graphics card Thats not correct. If you leave your graphics settings the same as they were before, you will do not need more graphics power. You can even lower your settings for more performance on newer games while still gaining quality compared to the Vive 1. So all together you will gain quality AND performance with the Pro ! You need Windows 8 or 10 That is not correct, when using the Pro with the old lighthouses, Windows 7/64 will do a great job.Only when using the new lighthouse 2.0 you will probably need Win 8 or 10 (not tested). You also do not need nessecarily USB 3.0, i ran the Pro with USB 2 without any issues. Though i must admit, i am not using Audio through the HMD. The image is worse then with the Vive 1 in the corners That is a fake impression.With the Pro you have a much clearer image all together. When you look to the side or into the corners you will notice a drop of quality, but with the Vive 1 that was even worse ! Though the clearer image with the Pro will make of coarse visible how bad the lenses of the Vive 1 and the Pro are.On the other hand, if i wouldnt have purchased the Pro i probably would have never known. Sweet spot is smaller then in the Vive 1 When you do not mount the Pro properly you will easily get that impression, because of the higher resolution of the device. When properly adjusting the Pro you will always quite exactly meet that spot when putting on the HMD which was more difficult with the Vive 1. Headphones cant be removed If you want to get rid of the headphones, just remove the foam on the left and right strap and umnount the Phones with a small screwdriver (1 tiny screw on each side).- They will just fall off, no soldering, no cable connector remove. Put the foam back on and your Pro will be much lighter. Replacing the Vive 1 with the Pro Quite some people reported "error 202" when changing over to the Pro. I ran into the same error, something with the Compositor window not full screen, but what did i expect ? It seems that older Nvidia graphics drivers recognize the Pro as a second device which will brake everything. Installing the earliest recommended driver 385.28 solved this right away. After the driver was installed SteamVR lost some settings and the taskbar icon had disappeared, but editing steamvr.vrsettings and set "startMonitorFromAppLaunch : true" brought the Icon and the App window back to screen and the Pro ran like a devil. (after restarting SteamVR) Some (older) games i have tested with very high resolutions above 3000 had no issues whatsoever running with VorpX, only one game refused to show up in the HMD.The VorpX logo appeared on the monitor and the steamVR image partly went gray (the sky). But i dont count this as an error, because the game isnt an official supported one and has may be something to do with the graphics driver or PhysX change. Damnnation for example, which is an Unreal 3 engine game ran perfectly on very high resolutions, the boost on quality was overwhelming. Some games where the HUD shrank down into tiny bars with tiny letters let me shout out a WOW. Where you had not a chance with the Vive 1 reading the small letters, with the pro it was like reading a newspaper. Summary While testing a few more games i experienced some strange errors where SteamVR refused to work. This whole VR thing ( SteamVR and Nvidia) seems relatively unstable to me, changing / deleting some PysX drivers brought SteamVR back alive. So i would always recommend , if a game doesnt work after you changed over to the Pro, try either one Nvidia Drivers Version higher or lower or use different Physx versions. So far only one game broke with the Vive Pro yet and i will keep on testing. Please Note that this Test was done with Windows 7, if you have Windows 8 or 10 some games may behave completely different, the infos from this page may not appropiate for Win8 and 10. All together a am overwhelmed with the Vive Pro and VorpX, everything is even more real, standing in a cloud of magic spells makes you holding your breath, monsters and scary faces look even more scary, the vorpX magnifier doesnt need to be used anymore (ok may be for some far corners on an extra wide screen), Strategy games look way more real because you can get much closer without seeing to much pixelated stuff, much more fun with Sports games because the tiny players look even more real, i think there will be much more to gaze in the next few days and months, i would everyone suggest to buy a Vive Pro, i would even say no need for a Pimax20k or whatever. The pixels of the Pro are so small just like you look at a 27 inch monitor a little closer. The only thing HTC could really improve are their lenses, and if they are a good and wise company they will provide some lenses that we can replace the old ones with to make the Pro finally a "Pro" .
